Question juridique clé
Whether the municipal non-confirmation of appointment violated the employee's right to be heard
Solution extraite
The employee had to be heard before a formal non-confirmation decision based on alleged conduct or deficiencies; the municipality failed to do so.
Motifs extraits
Even without an express rule, constitutional procedural guarantees applied. Because the decision affected her legal position and was based on reproaches, prior hearing was required; the defect was not cured on cantonal review.
